Katy Agnew grew up in the United Kingdom, and in 2013 she made the life-changing decision to relocate across the Atlantic and make Canada her permanent home – a move she has never regretted. Katy began her journey in veterinary care when she completed her Technician Assistant Diploma with honours from Granville College’s Veterinary Technician Assistant Program. She has since taught that same veterinary technician assistant program and currently locums at clinics in Vancouver.

In 2023, Katy joined Lifting Stars Veterinary Homecare as Dr. Jeff Berkshire’s executive assistant. She is also the creative mind behind our blog and our social media feeds. In her work, she always prioritizes the well-being of our clients and their furry friends. She is certified in the Fear Free Pets program as well as in End of Life Animal Care.

In her spare time, Katy enjoys exploring the breathtaking landscapes of beautiful British Columbia and crafting culinary marvels in the kitchen.
